Liked: Had a few hiccups on arrival where someone was parked in our pitch. Luckily there were staff on site for the Halloween event to assist us and moved us to a different pitch and offered us compensation for the rocky start. The staff member who helped (i’m sorry i can’t remember your name) you were fantastic and really helpful! Site was clean and well maintained and the dog walk is a good addition to the site. Site is ideally located to Formby beach with it being a short drive and there are plenty of local pubs for breakfast. Staff were very accommodating to our three small dogs. The Halloween activities looked good for young families and good facilities for children too. We would stay again for a night for beach access.
Disliked: Nothing really just a shame about the hiccup on arrival.

Liked: Lovely location surrounded by trees. Exceptionally friendly and helpful site staff. Good play areas for the children. Clean toilets and showers. Good sized, well drained pitches.
Disliked: Shower cubicles are a bit small. Difficult to shower a child and keep everything dry. Also didn't like the big gaps under the doors and them not being very high. I'm quite tall and felt my privacy was a little compromised.
